Abolish the Surplus.

The New York sam is another jour
nal that appears to be well pleased
with the Virginia platform. Itquotes
the Chicago HcrdH on the internal-tax
plank of the Virginia platform-as fol-
lows:
"To demand the immediate repeal
Of the internal-revenue system is to de-
mand the continuance of the protec-
tive tariff"
The Sun then comments in the words
subjoined:
"To demand the immediate repeal
of tie internal revenue system is to de-
mand the immediate abolition of the
surplus which now encumbers the
Treasury, threatens disaster to the
country, and defeat to the Democracy.
"Our tarin-reforming friends may
account for the motives of the internal
revenue repealers in any manner they
prefer. They may perhaps show that
the majority i'll favor of the plan are
protectionists, ike the majority of
democrats generally. But the fact re-
mains that the repeal of the internal
revenue will abolish the surplus-some-
thing which any plan agreed upon by
the Administration and the tariff re-
formers would totally fail to dc"
Let us have no surplus. 1t breeds
extravaganza.
